The Trick Actions are a set of teleportation based abilities for Vergil in Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition and Devil May Cry 5 as well as its Special Edition.
Gameplay[]
Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition[]
The Trick Actions function in much the same way as Vergil's Dark Slayer Style abilities, Trick Up remains the same as in Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition and Air Trick fires and marks an enemy with a Summoned Sword before teleporting Vergil to it, similarly to the reboot. By performing an Air Trick on a Grim Grip, Vergil will perform the Grim Trick allowing him to traverse stages similarly to Nero when he performs a Hell Bound. Trick Down can now exclusively be performed in Devil Trigger. Lastly, Vergil's Side Rolls in DT have been replaced with Side Dashes to allow for more precise evasion.
However, because of the input overlaps for the techniques Judgement Cut End, Kick 13 and Drive (as they are done by pressing the Melee button + Style button), it's possible to unintentionally cancel the animations of these moves midway unintentionally with an Air Trick (especially if locked on to a target).
Devil May Cry 5/SE[]
The Trick Actions return in Devil May Cry 5 and its Special Edition and function the same as in the previous game, however you can now perform Trick Down in human form once more and the ability now costs 17500. You can also Side Dash immediately after attacking in human form. Additionally you can perform a Trick Dodge, which teleports Vergil a short distance in a desired direction to evade attacks, by buying the upgrade from a Divinity Statue for
9000.
